Use this diagram to help you identify common clock parts found on a quartz clock movement and to understand the general assembly. Whether you want to make a clock or you’re replacing the movement of a broken clock, both can be easily installed with very little experience. The different parts of a clock can vary depending on the type of clock movement installed, this example shows a common mini quartz movement that has a threaded mounting shaft (post) and is powered by an AA battery.
For help selecting the correct quartz clock movement see our article How To Determine a Quartz Clock Movements Shaft Size.

I am looking for a replacement clock movement with pendulum. it is a Westminster “Versailles” and was gifted to my husband in 1999 for 25 years of employment at the Boeing Company.The part number is 23LTE-2. Could that be the same part as your 74-515? I want to make sure I order the correct part . Thank You
I’m searching for a replacement for a Seiko 21201 quartz movement. It is circular, 50 mm diameter by 8 mm deep. Has only hour and minute hands.

You will probably need just a standard “AA” clock movement depending on the length of your clock hands and the thickness of the clock face/dial.
I recently purchased a mini quartz clock movement with push on hands. The minute hand fits fine , but hour hand does not fit tight and my old one had a threaded mounting shaft. The old one had a V99 on it and was made by Jibang. Do you have anything that will work, as I like the clock face and would like to repair it.
We do sell replacement clock hands, sold as a pair. You can find the hands that will fit onto the push-on movement you ordered.

I need a clock movement with the thread length of 1″ but having a shaft diameter not to exceed 1/4″. Which movement should I order?
The closest movement we could offer is this “AA” clock movement:

It has an option (item # 74.482.6) threaded length of 15/16″ and the shaft diameter is 5/16″. Unfortunately, we don’t currently have a movement with a smaller shaft diameter in a long length.
I need a clock movement with a shaft diameter less than 5/16th. Do you make one?
The only clock movement we sell that has a smaller shaft than 5/16″ is this mini round movement with hands included:

When I install the hour hand it is loose. It just drops down and will not hold a position. How do I tighten it?
The hour hand should fit snugly over the stepped post. The hour hand fit over the white plastic part of the post, try to push the hand down as far as it goes. If it still doesn’t fit it may not be the right style hand for your clock movement.
I’m looking for a replacement for my metamec carriage clock. no threaded shaft. 8mm total shaft length 3mm shaft dia for hour hand 2.5mm for minute hand. Hr hand length 21mm, minute hand length 28mm
The only clock movement we have that is close to your measurements is this mini round clock movement:

Why after I changed the battery on my Military Swiss quartz watch it’s working anticlockwise.

Is it possible to get the diameter of the hour, minute, and seconds hands shafts for quartz movement model 74.483?
I am currently looking at a Seiko Clock Ref QSE628K Which is fitted with a Seiko Quartz movement Cal 21401.
The movement is 13/4″ wide X 2″ high. It appears to have been powered by either a LR44 or AG13 battery.
Can you advise of a replacement as the movement is fitted into a recess at the back of the clock. Do not know stem length at this time.
We are not able to cross reference clock movements by caliber numbers and such. You will have to take the movement out of your clock and measure the shaft length, you can use this article to help: https://blog.esslinger.com/how-to-determine-a-quartz-clock-movements-shaft-size/?_ga=2.93236765.1864664345.1586782584-1798044534.1526326902
